Owned for over 2 yrs and Never had a imbroglio.....I bought this camera the day my daughter was instinctive over 2 1/2 yrs ago. I paid about 250 for it but the advertised price was 450. I reckon it was on sale. Still not sure how that happened but no complaints here. The zoom is great, the dvd calibre and video is great. The battery life can go through about 3 dvd's (which are only 30 mins a identical) and a little more depending on if you use the lcd screen or the eye piece. This is my second camcorder and they have both been sony's. I regard the touch screen technology and I've never had any problems with sony products. The only draw backs to this camcorder are the notion quality, the fact that you cannot record to an sd card and the price apparently. This penalty on amazon is extremely high. I have seen more sony dvd camcorders come out since this one and they have had much more features such as the portray quality and sd card slots and they are as much or cheaper than this. I wouldn't pay 566 for this camera but it's def usefulness anywhere under 300 dollars.
through for beginners
i have wanted a camcorder since the 80s, but could not in trouble with to get a good one. truth is i still feel that way about camcorders, most my extra loot goes to music and recording.
i saw this cam about a year and half ago, used for 125. i must say i am very on cloud nine w my purchase. some of these reviewer have valid points, in that it is difficult to get really kind-hearted shots one after the other. but it kept me busy till i got a laptob with corel editing software. and i give someone a tongue-lashing, though antiquated a bit, it does what i need it to do really well. many told me i would have issues getting mini disc to blacken, i did not, my vaio laptob plays them everytime, and with editing software, you can do almost anything. and the effects on this camera are in fact cool, i like to shoot scenes and add my own music to it in the end, and i often watch the results on a dell 1200mp projector, for what i have invested, i have thus hundreds of mini dvds, about half of which i have ran through corel. and sum of the scenes have been beyond enriched, and ive learned alot just through using the camera daily.
overcome part about this cam, it couldnt be any easier to run, now dealing with editing software was annoying at first, but im better w blear for it. if you are new to cameras, and looking a midgrade cam, i do reccomend the dcr dvd 105.
another thing, if you mind amazon regularly, youll see the mini rewritable dvds by memorex are sometimes on mark-down for 9 dollars a ten pack, so i stock up then,and wait for the next time.
good cam, vast picture, unbeatable price.
Dont Buy This camera
Extensive for shooting but not editing or transferring movies to other dvds. Dont buy this output, sony is garbage.
Don't buy this camera
This camera was okay for about a year, but with very minuscule use and absolutely no abuse, it broke down. Similar problem to what others are reporting here - it records, but on playback it says "disk bloomer" etc. Sony wants $229 to fix it. No thanks!
Press error message
After 1 year this spin-off has several problem. I think that the mechanical design is not OK. The disk cover is attrition out. Drive error message came up then all recorded data will be unsalvageable forever. The cost for repair is high enough to buy a new one.
Not recommend to buy this product
